Isa 62:2 And the Gentiles shall see thy righteousness, and all kings thy glory: and thou shalt be called by a new name, which the mouth of the LORD shall name.
Isa 62:3 Thou shalt also be a crown of glory in the hand of the LORD, and a royal diadem in the hand of thy God.
Isa 62:4 Thou shalt no more be termed Forsaken; neither shall thy land any more be termed Desolate: but thou shalt be called Hephzibah, and thy land Beulah:(H1166) for the LORD delighteth in thee, and thy land shall be married. (H1166)
Isa 62:5 For as a young man marrieth a virgin, so shall thy sons marry thee: and as the bridegroom rejoiceth over the bride, so shall thy God rejoice over thee. (KJV)
The Hebrew word translated Beulah (H1166) is the same word for married. the ESV Bible uses the word married for (H1166)
Isa 62:4 You shall no more be termed Forsaken, and your land
shall no more be termed Desolate, but you shall be called My Delight Is in Her,
and your land Married; (H1166) for the LORD delights in you, and your land shall
be married. (H1166) (ESV)
The ERV Bible is more a paraphrase, but it gets the message
across.
Isa 62:4 You will never again be called 'The People God
Left.' Your land will never again be called 'The Land God Destroyed.' You will
be called 'The People God Loves.' Your land will be called 'God's Bride,'
because the LORD loves you, and your land will be his.(ERV)
Beulah land is Jerusalem after the second coming of the Messiah. It
also refers to New Jerusalem. (Thy land shall be married to the LORD). This
verse ties in with the description of New Jerusalem in the book of Revelation.
Rev 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the
first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more
sea.
Rev 21:2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem,
coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her
husband.
Rev 21:3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
Rev 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
Rev 21:5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
